playing....

while I was playing with my camera, I took two photos I really like and want to share...I bought that little racoon ( a Schleich figurine)a while ago and didn´t know exactly where to place him... look what he up now.
I hope you enjoy the pics,

Don Quijote...my latest works...........

here´s what I´ve been up to ....
Don Quijote de la Mancha and Sancho Pansa inclusive horse and donkey and the spanish windmill !

I have allways loved that novel so much and of course I love Spain, it´s been about more than 20 years ago now that I really thought about to emigrate to Spain, I visited a small area from Valencia severall times and was totally in love with the village, the city, the markets, the weather and of course the sea !!

The windmill and all walls are sculpted with paperclay,door and window are from rik Pierce, it´s made like a diorama, like my witches shop before, it´s just a half building with front to save space and to place a scenery in the front.
the dolls and animals are sculpted from polymere clay.. it´ll be soon ready for sale. Please contact me for more informations.
